Recipe video above. Big batch stir fry made with chicken and broccoli, and lots and lots of sauce - because broccoli florets hold lots of sauce but I still want some to soak my rice!This sauce uses the minimum ingredients you can get away with but still make something that stacks up to real Chinese

Ingredients

5 servings

500 g /1 lb chicken breast, thinly sliced ((or boneless thighs, do not tenderise))
1 1/2 tsp baking soda / bi-carb soda ((Note 1))
2 tbsp cornflour/cornstarch
3 tbsp light soy sauce (, or all purpose soy (Note 2))
1 1/2 tbsp Chinese cooking wine ((shaoxing wine) or Mirin (Note 3))
3 tbsp oyster sauce ((Note 4))
2 tsp sesame oil (, toasted (Note 5))
Dash of white pepper ((sub black))
2 tbsp oil (, peanut, vegetable or canola)
1/2 onion (, sliced)
2 g arlic cloves (, finely minced with knife)
400 g / 14 oz broccoli florets (, broken/cut into small bite size pieces (2 medium heads, ~5 cups))
1 1/4 cups water
White rice (or other rice of choice)

Steps

Tenderise chicken: Consider tenderising chicken breast using this method. (Not needed for thigh)
Broccoli: steam or boil using preferred method until cooked to your taste (it won't cook any further in the stir fry). I usually microwave steam 3 minutes on high. Drain well (waterlogged florets = diluted sauce).
Sauce: Mix cornflour and soy sauce until lump free, then mix in remaining ingredients.
Cook aromatics: Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add garlic and onion, stir for 10 seconds until garlic starts to go golden.
Cook chicken: Add chicken and cook for 2 minutes or until the chicken is just cooked through.
Thicken sauce: Add broccoli, Sauce and water. Stir well and cook for 1 to 2 minutes until the Sauce thickens and becomes glossy, and coats the ingredients.
Serve over rice!
